Event details
In this talk, I will be highlighting QCDSF/UKQCD Collaboration's recent developments on computing the Compton amplitude in a lattice approach. I briefly discuss how to access the Compton amplitude directly via the second-order Feynman-Hellmann theorem and as an application, present a calculation of the nucleon Compton tensor across a range of photon momenta. This enables us to study the $Q^2$ dependence of the low moments of the nucleon structure functions in a lattice calculation for the first time. I will also discuss possible further applications of this approach and present some preliminary results.

About Particle Physics Theory seminars
The Particle Physics Theory seminar is a weekly series of talks reflecting the diverse interests of the group. Topics include analytic and numerical calculations based on the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, theories exploring new physics, as well as more formal developments in gauge theories and gravity..
